## Member Function Documentation

### QWaylandPointer::QWaylandPointer(QWaylandSeat *seat, QObject *parent = nullptr)

Constructs a QWaylandPointer for the given seat and with the given parent.

### QWaylandCompositor *QWaylandPointer::compositor() const

Returns the compositor for this QWaylandPointer.

### QPointF QWaylandPointer::currentLocalPosition() const

Returns the current local position of the QWaylandPointer in surface coordinates.

### QPointF QWaylandPointer::currentSpacePosition() const

Returns the current output space position of the QWaylandPointer.

### wl_resource *QWaylandPointer::focusResource() const

Returns a Wayland resource for this QWaylandPointer.

This API doesn't actually make sense, since there may be many pointer resources per client It's here for compatibility reasons.

### bool QWaylandPointer::isButtonPressed() const

Returns true if any button is currently pressed. Otherwise returns false.

Note: Getter function for property isButtonPressed.

### QWaylandView *QWaylandPointer::mouseFocus() const

Returns the view that currently holds mouse focus.

### QWaylandOutput *QWaylandPointer::output() const

Returns the output for this QWaylandPointer.

See also setOutput().

### QWaylandSeat *QWaylandPointer::seat() const

Returns the input device for this QWaylandPointer.

### `[virtual]` void QWaylandPointer::sendMouseMoveEvent(QWaylandView *view, const QPointF &localPos, const QPointF &outputSpacePos)

Sets the current mouse focus to view and sends a mouse move event to it with the local position localPos in surface coordinates and output space position outputSpacePos.

### `[virtual]` uint QWaylandPointer::sendMousePressEvent(Qt::MouseButton button)

Sends a mouse press event for button to the view currently holding mouse focus.

Returns the serial number of the press event.

### `[virtual]` uint QWaylandPointer::sendMouseReleaseEvent(Qt::MouseButton button)

Sends a mouse release event for button to the view currently holding mouse focus.

Returns the serial number of the release event.

### `[virtual]` void QWaylandPointer::sendMouseWheelEvent(Qt::Orientation orientation, int delta)

Sends a mouse wheel event with the given orientation and delta to the view that currently holds mouse focus.

### void QWaylandPointer::setOutput(QWaylandOutput *output)

Sets the output for this QWaylandPointer to output.

See also output().
